I’d second that. Do your exercises from day after surgery (my MX was in November) and move as much as you can. It’s really worth it in the long run, however much you might not feel like doing much. I recovered from surgery much quicker than I thought I would. Oddly my hospital doesn’t use drains so I never had that experience others are referring to here. Took many weeks for all the fluids to be reabsorbed. But I did have a nasty allergic skin reaction to the waterproof dressing so be alert for that!
